Chapter #6The next day. by: Unknown "Well done, Ember!" Volteer praised when he was handing out the test results, "You've achieved the highest grade in class!"
The pink dragoness beamed at her score in the paper, a fat A stamp at the top. She looked over at Cynder, who winked at her. The black dragoness smiled, and Ember noticed that her front teeth looked a little bit bigger. Then Volteer turned to the black dragoness, looking disappointed.
"O, Cynder, I'm sorry to inform you but you failed horribly," he said, handing her the paper, "Did you ever study for this test?"
Cynder looked at her results, the terrible F glaring at her from the paper. But she didn't have time to answer, for the final bell suddenly rang.
As the class left the classroom, Ember found Cynder outside, still staring at her paper, dumbfounded.
"B-but I-I studied," she heard the black dragoness say, "I-I don't understand. Why did I fail?"
"Don't worry," said Ember, "We can talk to Volteer and let you take the test again."
"But I've never had to take a test again," said Cynder before she winced, clenching her eyes shut, "I think I know what's going on. It's these stupid headaches. I've been having them since this morning. I think that's why a flunked."
Cynder began to walk down the hallway, saying, "I need some fresh air and some alone time."
"Alright," said Ember, "I'll be in the dormitory."
The pink dragoness watched her leave, looking concerned, unaware that her forehead grew a little bit bigger as the mass inside her head expanded in size.
